Anyone going to N.Y for the Giants game??

Riggo44 · 09-22-2006, 01:13 PM

I'm flying out to N.Y on the 6Th for the Redskins vs Giants game. Anyone else going to go?
(2,Questions) First,I have a Preferred Parking pass for Lot 4. Does anyone know if that's good? Second,My friends and I want to tailgate before hand. How early do we need to show up to get a spot? Thanks

I would say not too shabby...

Riggo44 · 09-22-2006, 05:16 PM

Wow thanks. I really don't know to much about the meadow lands.
I hope we can get a couple of W's before then. I really hate flying across country to watch the Redskins lose. Which unfortunately seems to happen to me more times then not.

With a preferred parking pass it really doesn't matter much how early you get there. Just be ready for a lot of heckling, some flying debris, and generally a lot of a**holes. Just don't feed into it and you'll be fine. In my younger days I'd get drunk and step to the plate, it's just not worth getting kicked out. If you're going to fly across the country, FedEX will certainly give you a better overall experience.

Thanks, I've been to FedEx and RFK a bunch of times and loved it. Lately I've been trying to see the Redskins in different cities and checking out all the different stadiums. So far I would say Heinz field is my Favorite besides FedEx. Last year I went to St.Louis. I Know now I hate indoor football. The year before I went to 3 games the Monday night Dallas game at FedEx,Pittsburgh which was a blast.And then San Francisco which was cool because it's close. But Candlestick park is a dump. Miami is a great city but I don't care for there stadium. AZ is close but just to freaking HOT. San Diego is great for logistics. But getting in and out of there SUCKS!
I had been planing to go to New Orleans this year but since the hurricane my friends turned into a bunch of pussies.They think "it's still to messed up".

N.Y will be the 10TH different stadium I have seen the Redskins play in.
Next year I want to go to Green Bay for my 11Th.
After that I will probably just keep going back to D.C.

i considered getting tickets and driving up there for that game but i'm visiting my friend at PSU instead. go 'skins!

dmek25 · 09-26-2006, 02:07 PM

i saw the skins play there a while back, and its a pretty nice place to see a game. and the fans were loud, but nothing was physical. then again, im 6'2 and 245lbs

Riggo44 · 09-26-2006, 03:58 PM

Glad to hear it dmek25. Did you wear your Redskins gear? And how was the parking lot scene?
There are five of us going. All though 2 are girls I'll have a little bit of support. I'm always pretty respectful and have only gotten into one little skirmish in enemy territory.

So hopefully It will be a great day. Topped of with a W for the Skins.

dmek25 · 09-26-2006, 04:08 PM

wore all my gear and even tailgated with giant fans.

hey, nice avatar

I'm going to the game with 2 redskins fans and a bunch of giants fans. I try not to be an asshole and in general nobody says shit. I'll be tailgating with these guys if I found out where I'll throw out a line to the faithful.

Riggo44 · 10-05-2006, 09:38 PM

Nice, I'm flying out tomorrow afternoon. I have a parking pass for lot 4. I'll be sporting my Redskins gear

and tailgating with my Brother,Sister and a few friends. I can't wait for a big weekend in N.Y.
I'm getting pretty nervous about this game though. I really hope the Redskins don't show up and lay an egg like last year. I like are chances but I'm not getting overly confident. GO SKINS!!!

Here are some picks of my trip to N.Y. There kind of mixed up.:confused: It was a great weekend except for the score at the game.

I must say all the Giants fans were really cool to me. They where almost too nice. Not a single problem at all. Good times for sure.
I would defiantly like to go back one day and see the Redskins win. dscf1551 pictures from road trips photos on webshots
